Problem is lack of incentives. We don’t know what reward is and general assumption is it will just be a cosmetic of some variety that many either don’t care about or don’t like. Some ranking system that gives additional rewards based on contribution at end of event would also go a long way for this. Community challenge would be more impressive if contribution felt rewarding. Other than turning in the cookies for gift in return’s there is no incentive once the ship quest is done. Having something happen like getting something worthwhile every incremental amount would go a long way to encourage participation.

  • Community wasn’t going to hit the Felwinters goal either, and they had to step in. Even with the reward known, community still didn’t want to complete it. It’s why these types of events are a failure in Destiny.

  • Yea, but the long term reward that you can see no benefit of you participating does not help with that though. Having things you can complete yourself that contribute to the greater goal helps make people want to complete their own task to get stuff, but just seeing something that your individual contributions are so insignificant that nothing you do really shows a return kills motivation. Bungie had just enough contribution with the main quest for the ship that I think many quit immediately after it. Fusion rifles aren’t meta right now and other 2 guns are from previous seasons so people are less likely to push for those if they played previously. Most exciting thing with this event is the SMG rolls with firefly as the only kinetic with that roll and that is apparently a bug, which is sad for a bug being most exciting thing about the event loot.

  • [quote]you can see no benefit of you participating[/quote] Exactly. If I bake 30 cookies in a day and I look to see the quest percentage hasn't budged, It feels like my effort is irrelevant to the quest progress.
